Ring # 17 and my first dollar

[FloridaBill]

Again the wind was blowing to hard to hit the main Beach so I went to my inland beach. I have hit it pretty hard but found a gold colored ring. I cant find any marking but I'll take it as # 17. I also found my first dollar in the water and this gold colored coin or I should say token, not sure what it is maybe someone that still has small kids will know.

I cleaned it up some more. It is gold colored that's for sure. I think it is brass but then my wife thinks gold, but then a woman would right LOL.

I know one thing it's not a junk ring as I thought it was when I first saw it in my scoop. heres some pictures after another quick clean up.
